Gravitational instability of exotic compact objects
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020 Exotic compact objects with physical surfaces a Planckian distance away from where the horizon would have been are inspired by quantum gravity. Most of these objects are defined by a classical spacetime metric, such as boson stars, gravastars and ...
